00:00Good evening, Kapuso! I am your brother, Kim, who will give you the trivia behind the trending news.
00:09We are not trying to deceive you with this news.
00:13But in New York City, America, there is a piece of banana that was sold for more than 360 million pesos.
00:22How much is a banana for you now?
00:2420 pesos per piece?
00:26Almost 100 pesos per kilo?
00:28Here it is, in all its splendor.
00:30This banana has no duct tape on a white wall.
00:33It was only sold for 6.2 million US dollars.
00:37Or more than 365 million pesos.
00:40I repeat, more than 300 million pesos for a banana.
00:43The banana was sold in Sotheby's Auction House in New York City a while ago.
00:48Who is ready to spend 100 million pesos for a fruit?
00:52This is Lake Hang Sining.
00:54We're going to begin at $800,000.
01:25Meanwhile, to find out the trivia behind the viral news, just post or comment
01:29Hashtag Kuya Kim, what's next?
01:31Always remember, the important thing is to know.
01:33I am Kuya Kim and I will answer you 24 hours.
01:38Tomorrow, the Bicameral Conference Committee will roll out the more than 6.3 trillion pesos
01:45proposed 2025 National Budget after it passed the Senate and the House of Representatives.
01:51As of now, the fund of the Office of the Vice President is still in place.
01:55And the controversial Acap or Ayuda sa Kapos Ang Kita program
02:01was first proposed by Mau Gonzales in another sector.
02:09There was no discussion in the plenary on the passing of the proposed 2025 National Budget in the Senate last night.
02:15In the caucus or private discussion, the Senators' amendments were arranged.
02:20In the end, 18 Senators voted in favor of the 6.352 trillion peso National Budget
02:26while Senate Minority Leader Coco Pimentel abstained.
02:29The Office of the Vice President's budget remained at P733 million pesos
02:34after the camera asked for P2 billion pesos from the OVP.
02:39But according to some Senators, there will be a long discussion if this will be added.
02:44The Senate Committee on Finance Chair Senator Grace Poe explained that this is enough for the office to run.
02:50The OVP also has redundant programs and no one is asking for additional funds so they did not increase it.
02:57But Poe clarified that they are not closed to the possibility that the budget will be changed in the Bicameral Conference Committee.
03:04We know that when it comes to Bicam, they already have a formal request and written letter
03:10that they want because they really need these programs.
03:15But we made sure that they have the ability to still do their mandate.
03:22One of the people who pushed for the increase of the OVP budget is Senator Bato de la Rosa.
03:26But he said that he will follow the will of the Senate leaders.
03:30We need mercy. Justification is not needed.
03:34We respect the leadership of the Senate.
03:38That's it. Let's not fight because we don't want our institution to be disturbed.
03:47We, Joel Villanueva, Senator Mungo, Senator Villanueva, Senator Aimee, me, and many more.
03:57We try to make adjustments.
04:00In the Bicam, they will also talk about the controversial ACAP or Ayuda sa Kaposangkita program that is being pushed by congressmen.
04:08But in the version of the Senate, 39 billion pesos was removed for this because they still have a lot of questions about this.
04:15Who are the recipients of ACAP? What are the criteria for it?
04:21The proposal of Senator Aimee, Vice Chair of Finance for DSWD, is to enlarge it to DSWD-IX, right?
04:31So, okay, we can hear in the House why it can't be done and why it's not more effective.
04:37The fund for ACAP was put by the Senate in the pension of senior citizens, livelihood programs of farmers, child care assistants, and others.
04:46Tomorrow, the Bicam will start where the Senate and the House will discuss their version of the 2025 National Budget before it is signed by the President.
04:55For GMA Integrated News, Mav Gonzales for 24 Hours.
05:05Dear listeners, the weather systems that will bring rains to the country have been added.
05:10First is the shear line that will affect the eastern section of the Nodal zone.
05:15There will also be continuous winds and the effect of the Intertropical Convergence Zone or ITCZ in Mindanao.
05:21Based on the data of Metro Weather, it will start to rain in the Nodal zone tomorrow morning.
05:26It will continue to rain in the afternoon and there will also be rain in the Mimaropa and Bicol region.
05:31Almost the whole of Visayas and Mindanao will also be rained, heavy to intense rains.
05:35It will be experienced in many provinces, so be alert for possible floods or landslides in Metro Manila.
05:41In Metro Manila, it is possible that the weather will still be unstable but there will still be heavy rain even if there is sudden rain.
05:48In Amihan, it is still dangerous to allow small vehicles to cross the northern and western seaboards of the Nodal zone.
05:57The National Bureau of Investigation is now investigating the heavy and dangerous statements of former President Rodrigo Duterte and his son, Vice President Sara Duterte.
06:10Do the words they used have any answer in the law?
06:16Let's find out in the testimony of Joseph Moro.
06:40The words of Vice President Sara Duterte and former President Rodrigo Duterte are now being investigated by the National Bureau of Investigation.
06:53But what answer does the law have if there are such words?
06:58For the lawyers we talked to, this is not just a simple freedom of speech.
07:04What we are talking about here is the newly constituted authority, the president, and the public officer.
07:13Although you should not be penalized for your speech, but there are certain speeches like incitement.
07:19Under the revised penal code, there are several speeches that will be penalized.
07:26For the former Integrated Bar of the Philippines, President Atty. Domingo Cayoza, the violation of the Anti-Terrorism Act of 2020 may be included as a threat to life,
07:36particularly in Section 4 of this act, which is considered terrorism, the act of killing, injuring, or putting a person in danger.
07:45Anti-terrorism law is very broad.
07:49If you were the prosecutor, you would rather use this, number one, because you have more leeway.
07:56It punishes threat to commit terrorism, Section 5.
08:01It also punishes conspiracy to commit terrorism.
08:06And what's conspiracy under that law?
08:08Two or more.
08:09You show fear, right?
08:11Or you intimidate the government.
08:13But it is not necessary to make a plan before being punished.
08:18The act itself need not be executed.
08:21Because if it's anti-terrorism law, a plan, a proposal, a conspiracy, even if you don't execute, is already covered by the law.
08:31That doesn't need for the threat to be active.
08:36The fact that the threat is made could already be penalized.
08:41In addition, aside from the state, you can also complain for libel or slander.
08:47The most serious complainant with respect to the Vice President is the First Lady.
08:52Because she made allegations that she was the one who bribed them.
08:58She was the one who instigated them to give envelopes for bribing.
09:05In a sense, that's what she said.
09:08So you are actually imputing a crime against the First Lady.
09:23If those statements or utterances that you make tend to disturb the person from performing the functions of their office,
09:34so that's an arguable element.
09:37If it could instigate others to do it themselves for unlawful purposes.
09:43But then, if your speech will lead to stirring up the people against lawful authorities.
09:54The statements are suggested, it's not explicit in the incitement.
10:02But I think that while it may be difficult to prove the intent,
10:09if I am the judge, I will also look at the whole thing.
10:14In effect, what she is saying is, you say that it's like a withdrawal of support.
10:19Yes.
10:20That's the usual scheme that is used so that it won't become a coup d'etat.
10:28Because our laws now define a punish coup d'etat.
10:33It's written there, swift attack.
10:35So what those who want to make a coup d'etat,
10:40they won't say it's a fight.
10:43They will say, withdraw.
10:45For the lawyers we talked to this morning,
10:48to say what the violations of the law are,
10:52an investigation is still needed to find solid cases.
10:57For GMA Integrated News, Joseph Morong, Nakatutok 24 Horas.
11:03PIDEA showed to the Quad Committee the matrix
11:06that shows a deep connection between FOGO and illegal drugs,
11:10where Senator Bongo is included.
11:13But some congressmen denied it because of the lack of evidence.
11:17It turns out that not all of this can be verified.
11:20IAN CRUZ is on the case.
11:24In this matrix, PIDEA showed to the Quad Committee
11:29the vast world of FOGO and their connections
11:32with various crimes and syndicates in the country,
11:35including illegal drugs.
11:37In the presentation of PIDEA,
11:39they included an Alan Lim,
11:42who is a drug personality wanted in China,
11:45a casino junket operator,
11:47and involved in various crimes such as kidnapping.
11:51Lim is an incorporator of the controversial Pharmaly Corporation,
11:55which obtained a P11 billion government contract
11:58for COVID-19 pandemic supplies during the time of former President Duterte.
12:03According to PIDEA, Lim is a close friend of Senator Bongo,
12:08who was a special assistant to the President
12:10and to Michael Yang, former economic advisor of Duterte.
12:15But congressmen were dismayed when PIDEA was left out of their matrix.
12:21You said earlier that Alan Lim is involved in illegal drugs.
12:26Does it mean that Senator Bongo is also involved in drugs?
12:32Since you connected him, what does your arrow mean?
12:38Ma'am, according to our informant, they are just close friends.
12:41That's why we just put it there.
12:43They are just close friends.
12:45It is not specific that they are involved in drugs.
12:48That's why we have these incorporators, just to interlink them.
12:52And we are still digging that what we can have against these people.
12:57It is not yet complete, ma'am.
12:59Close friends.
13:00So, Bongo knows Alan Lim's work.
13:05Senator Bongo knows that because they are close friends,
13:09he knows that Lim is involved in illegal drugs.
13:14That will be answered by Senator Bongo, ma'am.
13:17Not us yet.
13:18Because we are still investigating.
13:19We do not have concrete proof yet of what their transactions is.
13:22Sorry, Mr. Gumban.
13:24Don't make such a matrix that is incriminating.
13:28You are just connecting and your title is illegal and POGO drugs connection.
13:34It also would be wrong for you
13:36to include a person who is not involved in those illegal crimes,
13:44Mr. Gumban.
13:46Let's not make mistakes.
13:48Because you do not want to accuse a wrong person, Mr. Gumban.
13:54Yes, Mr. Chair.
13:56This is what Senator Bongo did to his friend, Alan Lim.
13:59It is election time now.
14:01It is ruined.
14:04You will be colored black so that the others will be colored white, right?
14:11This is rehashed.
14:13PDEA is very irresponsible in their hearings.
14:21This is the 12th hearing of the Quad Cong about POGO and drugs.
14:26For GMA Integrated News, Ian Cruz.
14:28Tune in for 24 hours.
14:31Vice President Sara Duterte answered some of the issues facing
14:36those who are preparing a case against her
14:39and talking about having her impeached.
14:43She also has a connection with the Quezon City Police
14:46who filed a complaint against her.
14:48From Zamboanga City, she was targeted live by Marisol Abduramanda.
14:54Marisol?
14:57Mel, Vice President Sara Duterte went to Zamboanga City to ask for help.
15:02At a press conference, the Vice President said that she was just laughing
15:06at those who filed a complaint against her.
15:13Vice President Sara Duterte believes that those who filed a complaint against her
15:19including the National Bureau of Investigation,
15:23are a grave threat and a possible violation of anti-terror law.
15:26Because of what she said, if she will be impeached,
15:28she also talked about impeaching President Bongbong Marcos.
15:32On face value, to not hold water.
15:35And then, the second is the grave assault.
15:42I believe they are really forcing me to file a case.
15:46Those are my remarks.
15:49And third, I am laughing at the violations of anti-terrorism law
15:57because they are trying to reach my properties and assets.
16:12This was done by the Marcos Administration by former Congressman Arnulfo Tevez Jr.
16:17I asked the Negroes what happened there.
16:21Because I was watching what they were doing.
16:24And they're doing the Arnulfo Tevez playbook.
16:28What they did there, they entered the houses, the properties.
16:34They said, we have a clearing team.
16:38So that it's safe to search.
16:41The clearing team will go first.
16:43They will place all kinds of weapons
16:47or all kinds of possible and illegal things, including drugs.
16:53After that, the search team will go in.
16:58So if she will be impeached, they can try this.
17:02They can always spend money from the government
17:08to impeach the Vice President.
17:13If that's what they want.
17:15Covering up the lack and lying of the administration
17:22so that people won't notice that there are a lot of promises.
17:29Finally, the Vice President said that the threat to her life is active and true.
17:33And Duterte has doubts as to why the administration is not noticing this.
17:38So that Speaker Martin Romualdez can sit.
17:41The Vice President is the first in line.
17:44So it means that the state is required, is mandated by the Constitution and by laws
17:52to protect the Vice President.
17:56Because if the President is not there, he will be the one to follow.
18:00Because he is the reserve.
18:02Because if you don't protect your reserve,
18:06they will choose the members of Congress.
18:12Maybe that's what they want to do, right?
18:15They won't be able to follow the Constitution.
18:19As for the complaint filed by Quezon City Police
18:22against her and her security chief
18:25in the middle of a chaotic transfer to the hospital of her chief of staff on Saturday,
18:29VP Sara said that she will also file her own complaint.
18:33Initially, we are filing charges against them as well.
18:38For disobedience, for kidnapping, for robbery.
18:43We also heard the statements of Vice President Duterte.
18:52Aside from Zamboanga City, Vice President Duterte also went to Basilan this morning
18:57and asked for help.
18:58Tomorrow, she will travel to Pangasinan as part of their OVP Anniversary Meal.
19:05Thank you very much, Marisol Abduraman.
19:09The Justice Department is investigating the statement of Vice President Sara Duterte
19:14regarding the death of the President, First Lady at House, Speaker.
19:18As well as the statements of her father, former President Rodrigo Duterte,
19:23who questioned the support of the President's military.
19:26Salima Refran is the witness.
19:33Following the complaint filed by the National Bureau of Investigation,
19:36the Department of Justice is investigating Vice President Sara Duterte
19:41for possible violation of RA 11479 or Anti-Terror Law.
19:46According to the DOJ, Vice President Sara may have violated
19:50Section 4, Acts of Terrorism, and Section 5, Threat to Commit Terrorism
19:56under the law signed by her father, former President Rodrigo Duterte.
20:02It is clear in our law that if you do something to hurt and threaten the lives of other people,
20:16it is included in terrorism.
20:18Especially if its purpose is to intimidate and create an atmosphere or sow fear.
20:26Remember that the threat to the President is a national security matter.
20:33It is the hope of VP Sara and the people that the NBI will be equal.
20:40We will also investigate and ask VP Sara who is threatening her.
20:48The DOJ promises to follow the due process.
20:52We will apply the full force of the law to everyone without any distinction.
21:00No one is above the law.
21:04The investigation of the Binuong Task Force is also underway.
21:07It is also included in the investigation of the statements of former President Duterte
21:12that the DOJ called for bordering on seditious.
21:15The OVP is also listening to the confidential funds of the camera.
21:20Not only grave threats, not only sedition.
21:23But corruption can also be a matter that should be lodged in courts for determination.
21:29Whether there was actual misuse of funds as the public official.
21:33And that is among the things that we will investigate and work on.
21:38And we are just awaiting the formal referral of the proceedings
21:42before the Quadcom to be given to the Department of Justice.
21:50The NBI is also starting an investigation on the statements of former President Duterte.
21:55We studied it well.
21:57Anything can happen.
21:59I can go there or we can invite the former president.
22:04That's how it is.
22:06In the middle of the investigation, the Supreme Court filed a disbarment complaint
22:10against VP Sara to the Presidential Advisor in Poverty Alleviation, Larry Gadot.
22:16Because of this, the Vice President threatened to kill President Marcos,
22:21First Lady Liza Marcos, and House Speaker Martin Romualdez.
22:25GMA Integrated News is also trying to get hold of Vice President Duterte.
22:30For GMA Integrated News, I'm Nima Refran.
22:34Tune in, 24 hours.
22:40Literally, the Family Drama Series, Pulang Araw, is flying me to the moon
22:44because it will be brought to the moon with the help of a project.
22:49History in the making because it is the first and only Filipino series that was chosen to be part of the project.
22:54The cast's reaction will be discussed by Nelson Canmar.
23:01Art Gallery in the Moon?
23:04That is the goal of the Lunar Codex Project
23:07where more than 40,000 creative works of art will be combined in a time capsule
23:13such as music, films, and programs to be preserved for the next generation.
23:20The artworks are from 185 countries and territories,
23:25as well as 160 indigenous nations around the world.
23:29Representing the Philippines, the first and only Filipino TV series
23:34included in the time capsule is Pulang Araw.
23:38This is the Polaris Collection that was launched in the Lunar South Pole Region on October 2025.
23:44The series was chosen because it combines an important part of the history of the country
23:51as well as the courage of the Filipinos at that time.
23:54That's it. They will see me on the moon.
23:59And it's surprising because honestly, it's the first time I've heard of such a concept.
24:04I heard that they only put numbers there.
24:08So, it's just nice to feel like we're one there.
24:12But why on the moon?
24:14The moon is what the Project Lunar Codex sees
24:19that will not be affected by changes such as war and climate change
24:24and is expected to last for many centuries.
24:27Using innovative technology, the images were compressed to be sent to the moon.
24:34Aside from Pulang Araw, SB19's music is also included
24:38in the collection of works of Filipino artists that will be sent to the moon.
24:43It costs about a million dollars per kilogram to send things out into space.
24:49That's very expensive.
24:50But one of the biggest things that we've done is
24:53we've used semiconductor technologies on something called nano fish.
24:57And I can bring this up closer to the screen
25:00and you can see that this little disc, which is the size of an American quarter,
25:05has little dots on it.
25:07Well, each of these dots is actually the page of a book or a catalog, an art catalog.
25:13So, you can miniaturize an art catalog, something like that.
25:17Alden and Barbie will be included in the series.
25:24Earlier this morning, Direk Dom announced it and we're very honored
25:28that our project was chosen to have an opportunity to be part of the Lunar Codex project.
25:33So, thank you very much for the opportunity.
25:36We are all very honored and surprised, actually,
25:39because we really didn't expect to be included.
25:43Nelson Canlas, updated on Shoebiz Happenings.
25:47Salamat Iya!
25:49Hindi nakakaumay ang Paskong Pinoy na bawat taon iba't-ibang pakulo at tema.
25:55Tulad nalang ng Candylab sa Nueva Ecija
25:59at ang Intergalactic Christmas Experience sa Pangasinan
26:02na hango sa sikat na pelikula.
26:05Nakatutok si Dano Tingkungko.
26:11May the force of Pasko be with you!
26:17Ganyan ang ganap sa Bayambang Pangasinan sa kanilang Star Wars-themed Christmas display.
26:22Feel na feel ang pagiging Skywalker dahil sa Stormtrooper, Yoda at iba pang karakter.
26:28Wala ring dark side dito dahil gamit ang digital projection mapping,
26:33Intergalactic Christmas ang feeling.
26:36Hindi naman nakakaumay ang Christmas pasyalan sa pantabangan Nueva Ecija.
26:41Bawat sulok, may sweet treats.
26:43Dessert-inspired pati Christmas tree.
26:46Moon gazing?
26:47Pwede ring pictorial. May liman libong rosas pang umiilaw.
26:51At kung magutom, may restaurant na ang pagkain fresh from the farm.
26:57Dagdag sa Dinarayo, sa City of Pines, ang kakabukas lang na Rose Garden
27:02kung saan labing limang minutong maie-enjoy ang kanilang umiilaw na fountain.
27:07Sa Boracay naman, kanya-kanyang paandar na mga resort sa Christmas display
27:11at hindi mawawala ang mga giant Christmas tree.
